Ep. 112 - Interview: Come Curious, Florence & Reed

Author: Danica June 25, 2022 Duration: 1:34:28
This week we have the pleasure of setting down with the dynamic duo behind ComeCurious and hosts of the award-winning F**ks Given podcast : Reed Amber & Florence Bark.  Reed is a sex educator and presenter who has been in the adult industry for over 10 years both behind and in front of the camera. Reed worked as an ethical porn director and is now a advocate for sex-worker rights. She has been a regular guest on the BBC Tricky podcast for kinks, festishes and sex work as well as MTV News discussing pleasure and sexuality. Reed has also been featured on Gogglebox and was a part of Channel 4’s ‘How To Make it on OnlyFans’ documentary in 2021. Reed continues to speak about destigmastising sex, mental health and how to make her audience feel comfortable in their bodies by vlogging and sharing unfiltered authentic content across her platforms.  And across the mic from Reed we have Florence. Florence Bark is a content-creator and sex and relationships expert who speaks to millennials and young people with honesty and humour. Using her own experiences as (often painful) gold, her expansive, multi-disciplinary work cuts to the heart of what it means to live in pursuit of a genuinely fulfilling and growth-inspiring love and sex life. Florence also hosts her own podcast ‘How To Heal A Heartbreak’ where she works through her own healing journey and explores why we’re all so obsessed with love and what we culturally expect love to ‘fix’ in us as individuals. For more of Florence and Reed check out their podcast F**ks Given where they explore everything from polyamory and fetishes to STIs and having difficult conversations with your partner. 

Hosted by Danica, 50 Plus a Tip is a conversation between two stripper best friends who pull back the curtain on their real lives. This podcast navigates the messy, funny, and often misunderstood world of the adult entertainment industry from the inside. You’ll hear their unfiltered stories about the job’s unique challenges and unexpected triumphs, blending personal anecdotes with broader discussions on society, health, and culture. The tone is candid and frequently comedic, because sometimes you just have to laugh at the absurdity of it all. Alongside their own perspectives, Danica and Riley bring in special guests to expand the narrative, offering a platform for diverse voices within their community. Their goal is straightforward: to replace harmful stereotypes with genuine human experience. By sharing the highs and the lows-or as they call them, the (b)lows-they create an intimate space for listeners to understand a profession shrouded in stigma. Tuning into this podcast feels like sitting down for a brutally honest, and often hilarious, chat with friends who have seen it all. It’s about the reality behind the glitter, the economics beyond the stage, and the personal stories that rarely get told in mainstream conversations.
